Q – I am using Mozilla Thunderbird email client from last few years and I have saved all my emails and important contacts into it. Yesterday, I found some issues in the Address book and now I can only view these contacts. Is there any solution so that I can store a safe backup of Thunderbird Address Book?

Based on your query, here is the manual solution to export Thunderbird contacts and saved them separately.

  • Open Thunderbird email client
  • Go to Address Book
  • Click on Tool > Export
  • Choose the storage location and select CSV file format
  • Click on Save button

You can simply send the Address Book to your other account and access it from there. But in this way, you are able to send your single contacts at a time.

I have read the manual solution and find it quite difficult. Can anyone suggest an automated solution for this?
